I'm trying to install an Audiovox Prestige APS-596 alarm in my '91 Toyota 4Runner, and in the instructions it says there is an orange wire to connect to the supplied started disable relay, which is a normally closed starter kill circuit. If power is removed from the alarm, then the car will be able to start.
There is also another supplied ORANGE / white wire that can be used to operate a normally open starter kill circuit. This means that when power is removed from the alarm, the car will still not start.
I think it's necessary to have both aspects of the circuits, but are they intended to be installed together or do I have to pick which circuit I want more? If it is possible, how do I wire these two circuits so that they both work in their respective situations?
Right now I have them both wired in, and I can start the car when the alarm is going off.
yes you can use them together. cut the starter wire and run it to the relay with the orange wire connecting the white and red from this relay to the ign side of the vehicle....then connect the black to the red and the white black of the other relay. then connect the black from that one to your car side sarter wire

and then on each of those relays do I connect the orange wire to the alarm's orange wire and the alarm's ORANGE / white wire to the left over wire on the other relay?
I also had the red wire from each relay connected to the yellow +12 VDC ign/crank along with the yellow wire from the alarm. Now since I connected those red wires to the black ones, do I only connect the yellow alarm wire to the ignition? Thanks alot for the help. I'm alot closer now than I was before.
